College (American) Football - Alabama fell to it's first defeat of the season yesterday, losing 31 - 20 to Florida in the South Eastern Conference (SEC) Final. We made it to the Final by winning all 12 of our regular season games. Florida were the favourites going into the game - the line from Vegas was about 9 points - and so it proved. It was a great game with 4 lead changes and Alabama came out of the game defeated yet with their heads held high.
This defeat drops Alabama Crimson Tide from 1st to 4th in the National rankings, and instead of going to the National Title game against Oklahoma, we head off to New Orleans to play Utah in the Sugar Bowl. Utah have gone undefeated through their season, but against undeniably weaker opponents and Alabama will be clear favourites going into the game.
It's a great second prize opportunity, and there is always next year to win the National Championship!
Roll Tide Roll!
